Thanks to Kai Großjohann and Robert Fenk for their suggestions
regarding the question that I asked.
I noticed only recently that I cannot add address manually using ':'
anymore. It used to say 'xxx not in the db, rectify...', now it
says 'unperson'. This is bound to bbdb/vm-show-sender.
Primarily since I get mail from mailing lists, I do not want to add
every sender to my database. That is why I disabled the auto creation
of records. I did notice that there were instances in the
documentation that talked about how to avoid creating records if a
specific header in the mail message matched an expression.
I would like a combination of functionality described in their
replies. If, say I used ':' (or something similar) on a message in the
VM summary, I would like it to show the information of the senders and
recipients of the message, prompting me to create records if they
don't exist.
This is exactly what is done by bbdb-show-all-recipients, but I need to
be in the message and not in the summary. This is slightly
inconvenient.
bbdb/vm-snarf-all doesn't seem to do anything at present. (It does
show the results of bbdb-show-all-recipients, but doesn't do the
prompting for creation of the former.)
Thanks,
Sridhar
